Answer :

The number of cups of white paint used is, \frac{4}{3}

The number of cups of white paint used is, \frac{16}{3}

The number of cups of red paint used is, \frac{15}{4}

Step-by-step explanation :

As we are given that a pink paint mixture uses 4 of white paint for every 3 cups of red paint.

Now we have to determine the number of cups of white paint used for 1 red cup of paint.

As, 3 cups of red paint uses the number of cups of white paint = 4

So, 1 cup of red paint uses the number of cups of white paint = \frac{1}{3}\times 4=\frac{4}{3}

Thus, the number of cups of white paint used is, \frac{4}{3}

Now we have to determine the number of cups of white paint used for 4 red cup of paint.

As, 3 cups of red paint uses the number of cups of white paint = 4

So, 4 cups of red paint uses the number of cups of white paint = \frac{4}{3}\times 4=\frac{16}{3}

Thus, the number of cups of white paint used is, \frac{16}{3}

Now we have to determine the number of cups of red paint used for 5 red cup of paint.

As, 4 cups of white paint uses the number of cups of red paint = 3

So, 5 cups of white paint uses the number of cups of red paint = \frac{5}{4}\times 3=\frac{15}{4}

Thus, the number of cups of red paint used is, \frac{15}{4}

5. A raffle prize of 14x^2 /15 dollars is to be divided among 7x people. Write an expression for the amount of money that each p
ICE Princess25 [194]

Given that the raffle prize is to be divided equally, the amount of money each person will receive will be equal to the total raffle prize (14x^(2)/15) divided by the number of people (7x). Thus, we get:

(14x^(2)/15) / 7x

= (14x^(2)/15) * (1/7x)

= 14x^(2)/15*7x

= 14x^(2)/105x

= 2x/15 (Divide both the numerator and denominator by 7x)

Therefor, each person would receive 2x/15 dollars.

If you know how to cancel when dealing with fractions, you can get to this step much easier, however this way also works. The idea with cancelling would be that when you had (14x^(2)/15) / 7x, you would recognise that 14x^2 may be divided by 7x straight away to get 2x. Then you would have 2x/15 as your answer.
